| :Okay I found the problem. Not only was the expiry time shorter than I was lead to believe (two weeks, not two months), but so was the minimum userlevel required to maintain it (300, not just "any op"). Once GameSurge's website starts working properly, we'll give all our ops level 300, and that should be a much stronger fix.

| == Move onto another network? ==
| |
|
| |
| After talking with fellow IRC users on this matter, it has come to my attention of a move from GameSurge onto a new network. Considering GameSurge's lack of convenience as of late and relatively instability, it would be called to move it onto the network administrated by fellow IRC user, FastLizard4. But why? Here's how:
| |
|
| |
| * We won't have to worry about registration dropping
| |
| * More staff on to monitor the channel as a whole
| |
| * Authserv and most other GameSurge services are horrible. LizardIRC has better services in general.
| |
|
| |
| These reasons let alone should be enough on why the move should be made. Coupled with a server that can be configured to our needs, I see no wrong in such. <span style="font-family:Badaboom BB; font-size: 14pt"> [[User:Conny|<font color="#73c55a">Con</font>]][[User talk:Conny|<font color="#afaf5e">ny</font>]][[File:Airconny Snake Sig.png|20px]]</span> 12:51, 16 May 2014 (EDT)

| |
| :'''Support'''. With the ops of the channel barely ever being on, combined with the short time in which channels automatically drop on GameSurge, the risk of the registration of the channel just dropping like it did today is a really bad thing. The services of GameSurge are also terrible; I can't authenticate just because I don't have a specific hostname, and I need to do some authcookie command crap just to identify myself to AuthServ? I don't even get why GameSurge doesn't just use the normal NickServ. Pretty much all the other networks using the "Serv" family don't have this problem. Per what Conny said, LizardIRC is a significantly more convenient network for a channel like this than GameSurge.

| About the the whole "inactivity of the ops" thing:
| |
| *Every single one of us have lives and stuff. PoD doesn't use the Wiki anymore, Miles isn't an IRC guy, OT is super busy with life and what not, Toomai does Canadian things, and I'm either in school or playing rat doto.
| |
| *All of us really can't be arsed to stay on the IRC and monitor it forever. In everyone else's case, they're too busy with life to even check on and look actively. In my case, I'm just busy enjoying life and playing doto.
| |
| *Out of all the users mentioned, OT and I are the only ones who have actively given out our contact information: Skype and/or Steam accounts.
| |
| *Put one and one and one together, and you have two options: really hope that we change our ways of life (unlikely) or figure out how to contact us in case of shit like this going on or in case of a spammer or something.

| I can't shake the feeling that all this support is coming from a group of "cool kids" that support this "LizardIRC" for reasons like "we're buddies and we want to use the same network as our favourite channels, and we're using one lapse of GameSurge to get it done".

| |
| It has come to my attention that some of our regulars have been trolling on MarioWiki's IRC the same way they've been trolling on ours lately (I'm not giving out names, you know who you are). So, it's time to get a foot put down.
| |
|
| |
| I will no longer tolerate any sort of Twitch-like chatspam. Offenders will be banned if they don't knock it off. Offenders will also be banned if I hear any more complaints from other NIWA wikis (with suitable proof of course). If things don't quiet down effectively, I'll get SpamServ into the channel to help curb it. We've been too lax on this and it's time to quit screwing around.

| |
| :I'm going to chime in here and add my own point of view. I've seen the spam here, (posting in ALL CAPS, typing out odd faces with characters I've never seen on a normal keyboard, using non-existant words like "goy" and "uwu", etc.) and I'll admit, it's pretty boring to come on IRC anymore because of it. Every time I show up, it's pretty much the same group of users clogging the chat with constant uses of the examples listed earlier in this post, among LOLs and other shit like that, so I fully agree with reinforcing the no-spam rule. As for the trolling...I honestly haven't seen it. The only thing that comes to mind that even resembles trolling is that overused "tech skill" joke, but from what I've seen, it hasn't offended anyone. Also, I've occasionally seen users badmouthing other IRC regulars (most notably, Brian) when the users that the conversation is centered on aren't in the chat. Though of course, the trolling that you're specifically referring to might be a different case.
| |
|
| |
| :So here's my idea. First things first, I say we remove the "All enforcement is done at a moderator's discretion" rule, since every time I see these things happening on the channel, there are usually about 3-4 mods on, (not counting you) and from what I've seen they haven't done anything. From now on, the mod should immediately take action when they see someone breaking a rule and/or receive a log of it. Oh, and while I suggest that, I might as well suggest another rule that I've been planning to propose for months now, since I think that it may help alleviate the situation somewhat:
| |
|
| |
| :"Keep the posts on as few lines as possible. Do not type sentences that are less than 3 words long repeatedly, and never post one word at a time. Using too many lines to convey your messages floods the chat, and makes it difficult for others to get what you're saying."
| |
|
| |
| :Hopefully this rule, plus my other suggestions will make the IRC a better place. Aaaand, that's all I've got. '''[[User:MeatBall104|MeatBall104;]]''' [[User talk:MeatBall104|Now with lean,]] [[Special:Contributions/MeatBall104|grass-fed Angus!]] 19:27, 22 October 2014 (EDT)
| |
| ::A "don't post short lines" rule is kind of pointless. If people are abusing short lines, that's naturally spam. And enforcement is done at mod discretion by definition, that's not something that can be removed. The point of this post is to say that mods (including myself) are being too lax.

|
| |
| :::(Edit conflict) I guess I'm better off simply stating my POV. I fully agree that the mods should step up their game. However, I only proposed those slight rule-changes to make the results even bigger when they're combined with the mods actually working to stop this spam and trolling. My removal of the enforcement rule was BECAUSE of how the mods weren't enforcing the no-spam rule (seriously, all they ever did was just sit there and pay seemingly no attention to all this crap), and I proposed to add the no short lines rule to minimize spam even further. So, sorry if I wasn't completely clear. Additionally, maybe adding a SpamServ in addition to BOTH of those would increase the result even more. Now as for me, I'm going to step out so others can say something to help move this discussion along.

There is only one or two IRC user(s) in the chatroom and there has been literally no discussion at all for three months by now. Chanserv has left the channel so this means that #sw is no longer a registered channel with ops, voices, modes, etc. Why still leave a link to the channel on the [[Main page]] when nobody goes no there anymore?

I mean, if we did move to Discord, there is a chance we'd get more people, but one thing I feel is necessary to point out is that Serpent King at one point tried to put together a SmashWiki Discord and that fell through. What it boils down to, quoting something Toomai said one time, all the arguments boil down to are "Discord is new and improved" while "the IRC is well-established and popular". New doesn't always mean better, and, as someone who uses Discord, I still don't think Discord's good enough for a new SW IRC yet. It's getting close to what I'd prefer it to be, but it may still take another year. Maybe more, maybe less.

| *@SK, all major smash groups now use Discord, and due to the fact that you have to be invited means no trolls and idiots will come on the channel [[File:PoultrysigSSB4.png|20x50px]][[User:Poultry|<font color="red">'''Poultry'''</font>]][[File:PoultrysigSSBM.png|20x50px]]''([[User talk:Poultry#top|<font color="blue">talk</font>]])'' the God-Slayer 17:33, 6 November 2016 (EST)

| *:@DF, The reason SK's failed attempt happened is because only the people on the IRC channel at the time would of heard about, how is it supposed to succeed if he doesn't advertise it on the rest of SmashWiki, in fact it haven't even been mentioned to me and lots of other users, if other users would have known about it, it could have actually gone somewhere [[File:PoultrysigSSB4.png|20x50px]][[User:Poultry|<font color="red">'''Poultry'''</font>]][[File:PoultrysigSSBM.png|20x50px]]''([[User talk:Poultry#top|<font color="blue">talk</font>]])'' the God-Slayer 17:39, 6 November 2016 (EST)

| ::What I'm meaning is that we did have a few people using it, and while it was used for a while, it's ultimately died and has been dead for a couple months now. Those who used it just came right back to the current IRC.

| :::The reason I didn't advertise it, by the way, is because Toomai wasn't sure about using it. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;font-size:12pt">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #0b7">Serpent</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #fd0">King</span>]]'''</span> 20:13, 6 November 2016 (EST)

| *Why do the IRC and Discord have to be mutually exclusive? We can keep both around for now, and they can serve different purposes. IRC can be a casual, general chat that's easy to log and access (and we could even link it to a general chat on Discord through an IRC bridge bot if need be), and Discord can be for more specialized discussions. Just my two cents. If at some point we decide to make a full move, I wouldn't mind that, but this whole dichotomy of "should we have one over the other '''immediately'''" just kind of irks me. <b>-- [[File:Yellow sig.png|16px]] [[User:Yellow|<span style="color:#000;text-shadow: 1px 2px 3px #CCCC00;">Yellow</span>]] [[User talk:Yellow|<span style="color:#006400;text-shadow: 1px 2px 3px #9ACD32;">of the Grove</span>]]</b> 03:43, 8 November 2016 (EST)

| :*The IRC userbase is already small, so if we split it, discourse would be difficult to kickstart.

| Ok so why don't we do this? We'll do a trial run of the discord channel (already have it set up) alongside the IRC for a month or two and see how it works. If one dies in favor of the other, we get rid of that. If they both manage to stay afloat, we keep both. <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;font-size:12pt">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #0b7">Serpent</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #fd0">King</span>]]'''</span> 02:36, 11 November 2016 (EST)

| Should we just do one big bump on here? Someone put the merge tag on the page. [[User:MHStarCraft|'''<font color="skyblue">MH</font>''']][[User talk:MHStarCraft|'''<font color="blue">StarCraft</font>''']] [[File:Mega Man X SNES sprite.png|19px]] 01:06, 24 January 2018 (EST)

| ====Merge discussion====
| |
| The proposal has passed, and the comment above suggested that we merge this page with [[SW:DISCORD]]. If this is agreed upon, transfer the {{t|Obsolete} template with the rest of the article if necessary.

| :Why are you responding to finished discussions from over five years ago, and there is nothing to merge here, this page is an explicit archive for our old IRC page. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 19:21, June 6, 2023 (EDT)
